NorthPoint Community Food Shelf’s March food drive

Last year, more than 30,000 North Minneapolis residents were served at NorthPoint’s Community Food Shelf and that number is expected to grow in 2011. To help meet the growing need, NorthPoint’s Food Shelf will again participate in the State’s largest food drive known as the March Campaign. Cash and food donations received during March will be partly matched by Minnesota FoodShare and other local foundations.
